Notes
'Bingo' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Bingo') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. Its deep pink Japanese type flowers have a pinkish mid puff and keep well in a vase. The stems are sturdy and strong, and the dark green leaves stay healthy. Hermann Krupke bred it.
Pairs well with Incrediball hydrangea, Western sword fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
